Cyborg R.A.T. Gaming Mice

Intro

No matter how many gaming mice we review, there always seems to be something new and interesting
on the market or just around the corner. This time that something interesting comes in the form of
adjustable shape. The Cyborg gaming R.A.T. mice are the first to offer this adjustability, and we got
the whole rat-family for a review.

Package

The whole family of R.A.T.s is packed in very similar boxes, all of which have opening doors and
similar shape. The weird shape is a sure way to stand from the crowd on the store shelfs. The boxes
are also informative and keep the mice safe during shipping.

The 3, 5 and 7 may look similar, but there's plenty that makes them apart. The higher the model
number, the higher sensitivity sensor and more adjustments you get. The 3 is the most basic model, it
has a 3200 DPI sensor and can't be adjusted. The 5 offers a higher 4000 DPI sensor and also
adjustable palm rest. The top of the range model is the 7, which offers a 5600 DPI sensor and comes
with adjustable palm rest as well as adjustable thumb buttons and interchangeable rest for the pinky.
Cyborg is also working on a "9" model, that apart form being wireless is very much like the 7.
